DL: Julio Bashmore//Jack got Macked

I’ve had that sick Jack got Macked jam from up and coming Bristol producer/DJ Julio Bashmore on daily repeat for the last month.

Jack got Macked, what a gem my oh my. Bashmore breaks out the ChiTown influence again with some Jackin Drums and Old School Piano patterns only to lead the a vocal that can ONLY incite smiles and sing-a-longs around the world. Once you think you have this one pegged as just another classic house throwback, Bashmore flips the script with some distinct UK flavor.

Lookbook is Minneapolitans Grant Cutler (beats, vocals) and Maggie Morrison (vocals).  They’ve kept me coming back with their smooth, minimal synth and chilled out grooves.  Perfect for saying goodbye to this year’s blissed-out summer.

Joy Orbison is a UK producer whose Hyph Mngo single just dropped on Doldrums Hotflush.  Mmm… delicious dub.

What are your favorite albums from this decade? Visit and complete a list at my friend Brian’s ambitious Top 13 Albums Project before October 2.  Why? Because it’s fun, because it is nostalgia-inducing, and because you haven’t had a reason to go back to Silent Shout in a few years.

Here is a smattering of Brian’s favorite tracks from this decade:

DL: Portishead//Threads

DL: Animal Collective//Peacebone

DL: Holy Fuck//Lovely Allen

Surf Solar, the lead single from the forthcoming Tarot Sport on ATP, is utter brilliance.  I can hardly wait for the new album.

You can catch Fuck Buttons play in Texas at Fun Fun Fun Fest this November.  (P.S. I will be there!)

Last time we posted about Visitor, they had just released first track Los Feelings.  They are following up with Too Far Gone,  taking dream wave above and beyond.  Dream Wave+

Dark riffs and heavy drum beats operate simultaneously in a space filled with looping dirty electro and punctuating, laser sounds.  Echoing chorals assist with the build.  The elements combine to create a great, banging denouement at around 1:50.  End result: you get rocked so hard you die, plus.
